Ross Perot, a former presidential candidate of the Reform Party, which was a third political party in the United States, had strongly objected to the creation of the North American Free Trade Agreement (NAFTA), which nonetheless was inaugurated in 1994. Perot feared the loss of American jobs to Mexico, where it is much cheaper to hire workers. What are the merits and demerits of Perot's position on NAFTA? Considering the recent economic developments in North America, how would you assess Perot's position on NAFTA?
